40TH ANNIVERSARY SOIREE

Leadership San Francisco proudly celebrated its 40th Anniversary on November 13th with an unforgettable soirée at the Porsche San Francisco showroom. More than 300 alumni, partners, elected officials, and friends gathered for an evening filled with connection, storytelling, and shared pride in four decades of developing impactful civic leadership. Guests enjoyed incredible food from beloved local small businesses, lively activations, and the chance to reunite with classmates while meeting leaders across multiple generations of the program.

A defining moment of the celebration was the dual recognition Leadership San Francisco received for its enduring contributions to the city: an official City Commendation presented by City Attorney David Chiu and an Assembly Commendation from Assemblymember Matt Haney. These honors underscored the profound role LSF has played in strengthening San Francisco’s civic fabric. The energy in the room was warm, celebratory, and deeply community-focused, which was a testament to the strength of the LSF network. Thank you to everyone who joined us in honoring 40 years of leadership, service, and shared commitment to building a better San Francisco!

All proceeds from the evening will go to the LSF Scholarship Fund, so that future leaders also have the opportunity to participate in this incredible program. If you would like to donate to the fund, please click below:
